In the village, the dim blue sky before sunrise makes people’s hearts flutter and the midday sunlight paints the world yellow. The sky goes gray when it rains, but glows burning red at sunset when the boats return. Diligent adults work by the wharf where fishing boats come and go, and chattering children roam the meandering alleys. The pebbles on the beach sing in tune with the waves and the stars descend in silence, falling asleep.
From dawn to night, this book forgoes realistic description to depict the island’s ever-changing scenery through expressive images and colors.
